Scootin’ Into A Dance Craze

For years, country fans have pulled up their boots, grabbed their hats, and headed out to the nearest honky tonk for a night of fun. That’s when they hit the floor and dance the night away.

But these country folks don’t do any ole dance, no sir…they line dance!  

Line dancing has gone hand in hand with country music for years, but there was a time when it somewhat faded from popularity. That all changed in 1992 when one popular country duo released a tune that made everyone want to get up and dance.

Keep On Dancin’

Called “Boot Scootin’ Boogie,” the song was recorded and released by the duo Brooks & Dunn in 1992. It was the fourth in a string of number one hits for the duo, and remains one of their most popular songs to this date.

As author Alice Randall wrote in My Country Roots: The Ultimate MP3 Guide to America’s Original Outsider Music, “Boot Scootin’ Boogie” was written by songwriters Don Cook and Scott Hendricks as a tribute to honky tonk line dancing. As to be expected, line dancing experienced a surge in popularity following the song’s release.

Since “Boot Scootin’ Boogie” kick-started the line dance craze again, there have been countless dances choreographed to the song itself.
